FRIENDLY SOCIETIES AND TRADE-UNIONS SIXTIETH ANNUAL REPORT BY THE REGISTRAR OF FRIENDLY SOCIETIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER, 1936.

Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly pursuant to the Friendly Societies Act, 1909, Section 9, and the Trade-unions Act, 1908, Section 16.

The Registrar of Friendly Societies to the Hon. the Minister. Sir,— Wellington, Ist July, 1937. I hav -i the honour to submit the annual report of this Office for the year ended 31st December, 1936, in accordance with the provisions of the Friendly Societies Act, 1909,"section 9, and the Tradeunions Act, 1908, section 16. I have, &c, R. Sinel, Registrar of Friendly Societies.

REPORT.

As mentioned in last year's report, Mr. C. Gostelow, F.1.A., assumed the position of Registrar in addition to his duties of Government Actuary. In September Mr. Gostelow relinquished his connection with the Department to take up an appointment under the New South Wales Government. Since that date the actuarial duties under the Act have been carried out by Mr. S. Beckingsale, F.1.A., Actuary to the Government Insurance Department. It is proper for me to point out here that under this arrangement it is not possible to deal expeditiously with the large volume of actuarial work requiring attention. PART I.—FRIENDLY SOCIETIES. General. The membership of friendly societies increased during the year from 103,612 to 108,059, a gain of 4,447, equal to 4-29 per cent. This represents the largest increase in any one year since 1929, while the total membership now shown is the highest in the history of the friendly-society movement in New Zealand, a reflex of the generally improved tone in the community over this period. The total accumulated funds of societies increased from £4,812,787 to £4,956,948, the average capital per meriber being now £45 17s. 5d., as compared with £46 9s. at the end of 1935. The reduction in the average capital per member is entirely due to the comparatively large increase in membership mentioned above. Net interest credited to the Sick and Funeral Funds during the year amounted to £181,279, equal to a rate of £4 11s. sd. per cent., as compared with £4 Bs. 3d. per cent, during the previous year. The average contributions and interest per member credited to the Sick and Funeral Funds increased from £3 9s. lid. to £3 11s. 5d., while the cost of sickness and funeral benefits decreased from £1 19s. sd. to £119s. 2d. The total net gain in these particular funds for the year amounted to £1 3s. 2d. per member. The number of members who died was 951, equal to 8-95 per thousand members at risk, as compared with 887 and 8-64 respectively during 1935. Registrations. There wen. registered during the past year eleven new branches, as follows —M.U.1.0.0.F. : Loyal Wellsford Lod:;e (Auckland District) ; Loyal Patea Lodge (Taranaki District). 1.0.0.

Valuations. In Appendix B will be found a summary of the following quinquennial valuations completed during the year —namely, Independent Order of Odd Fellows of New Zealand, Aorangi Lodge, 8.U.0.0.F., Court City of Auckland A.0.F., Grand Lodge of Otago and Southland U.A.0.D., and National Division O.S.T. of New Zealand. As in previous years, the bases adopted in making the valuations were in general the New Zealand Friendly Societies' Experience at 4 per cent., with suitable loadings in the case of female members A detailed valuation report was supplied to each society, but the following summary may be of general interest: — 1.0.0. F. of New Zealand. —The valuation of this society, which comprised two hundred and one lodges, disclosed a net surplus of £121,511, as compared with £81,006 at the previous valuation, a net improvement of £59,384 after allowing for surplus appropriations amounting to £18,879. The annual rate of interest credited to the combined benefit funds was 5-29 per cent. The gains from this source and from secessions were offset to some extent by an unfavourable sickness experience. The sickness cost for male members exceeded the expectation by 3 per cent., while that for female members was 76 per cent, above the male standard. Aorangi Lodge, B.V.O.O.F. —Valuation discloses a surplus of £1,454, an improvement of £1,053 after taking into account appropriations during the period. A feature of the experience was the light sickness, the claims being only 70 per cent, of those expected by the standard table, while the interest credited averaged 5| per cent, per annum. Court City of Auckland, A.O.F. (Court out of District). —The surplus in this Court amounted to £2,783, as against £4,552 at the previous valuation, or a net improvement of £1,971 after allowing for appropriations during the period. The financial gains from light sickness and from good interest rates were to some extent counteracted by the unfavourable effect of a light mortality experience. Grand Lodge of Otago and Southland, U.A.O.D. —The valuation comprised twenty-five lodges and a membership of 3,770. The Sick and Funeral Fund showed a surplus of £36,788, and the Special Funeral Funds an aggregate deficiency of £19,810, thus disclosing a net surplus of £16,978 over the benefit funds of the society as a whole. The improvement during the quinquennium, which amounted to £19,985, was mainly due to high interest rates, comparatively light sick claims, light mortality, and to profit from secessions. The average rate of interest credited was nearly 6 per cent., the sick claims, although somewhat higher than in previous periods, were 9f per cent, below those expected by the standard table, while the gains to the Special Funeral Funds owing to light death claims more than counterbalanced a small loss to the Sick and Funeral Fund from this source. National Division O.S.T. of New Zealand. —This society, which had nine branches and 513 members, showed a surplus of £8,468. After allowing for surplus appropriations the net improvement during the quinquennium was £5,562. This improvement was largely due to a good interest return, light sick claims, and to profit on secessions. The sickness cost of male members was 22J per cent, below the expected, while that of female members exceeded the same standard by 50 per cent. A feature of the female sickness is the gradua reduction in the excess claims during the past twenty years.

"78. Section twenty of the Trade-unions Act,, 1908, is hereby amended by inserting, after subsection one, the following subsection: — " ' (Iα) If a trade-union makes default in forwarding to the Registrar the annual returns required by section twenty-eight hereof, the Registrar may send by post to the last known officers of the union a letter inquiring whether the union is in existence, and, if within two months of sending the letter the Registrar does not receive any answer thereto, or receives an answer to the effect that the union is defunct, the union shall for the purposes of the last preceding subsection be deemed to have ceased to exist, and the Registrar may, subject to the provisions of the next succeeding subsection, cancel the certificate of registration thereof.'
